For most people, fruit is an irresistible "temptation". However, when enjoying this delicious treat, there are some precautions to keep in mind.
First, people who are prone to diarrhea should eat fruits with seeds in moderation. Fruit helps to speed up the passage of food through the intestines, especially those with small seeds, such as kiwis, dragon fruit, mulberries, persimmons, strawberries, bananas (the seeds in many modern banana varieties have degenerated), fresh goji berries, melons, watermelons, and grapes. The seeds in these fruits are mostly fiber, which cannot be digested and absorbed by the intestines. They stimulate intestinal peristalsis, promoting the faster expulsion of intestinal contents. Therefore, people who often suffer from constipation due to insufficient daily dietary fiber are well-suited to eat seeded fruits. However, for those with inherently weak gastrointestinal systems, low stomach acid, or who experience diarrhea easily from eating, and even feel the urge to use the restroom after drinking cold water, it is not advisable to eat too much fruit, especially those with small seeds, as consuming too much at once can easily lead to diarrhea.
Second, for people with originally weak digestive abilities, eating a large amount of fruit can dilute digestive juices and stomach acid, leading to a decrease in intestinal digestion, absorption, and antibacterial functions. In this case, it is best to eat less greasy and high-protein food to avoid causing bloating, gas, and bacterial food poisoning. Conversely, for these individuals, if they have already eaten a lot of greasy or high-protein food and their gastrointestinal system is under heavy burden, they should not eat a lot of fruit either.
Finally, substances in fruits such as proteases, oxalic acid, and tannins can damage the oral and digestive mucous membranes, and some fruits may also cause allergies. For example, many people experience tongue stinging, and even mucosal damage or bleeding after eating kiwis, and a dry, numb sensation in the mouth after eating persimmons. This is the result of damage from proteases and tannins. Such individuals need to identify the fruits that cause their allergies and avoid consuming them.
For everyone, the specific types of fruits that are not suitable for excessive consumption, the fruits that cause allergies and intolerances, and the optimal amount for their own body are things that need to be carefully experienced after consumption.
